✨ Net::T...I::REST (3pm) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Net::T...I::REST page πŸ’– β€” yes it's User Contributed Perl Documentation, and yes we are doing this. This is part 1 of 6, and we're literally starting mid-params because that's just the vibe the page woke up in today. Every param, every default, every deprecation notice, every qw/.../ list is staying exactly where it is. no cap. 🫢


πŸŽ€ params, mid-list, we're just rolling with it

  • status β€” Required. this is the actual text of your status update. URL encode it as necessary. and bestie, listen: statuses over 140 characters will cause a 403 error to come back from the API. so keep it short, keep it iconic. 😭
  • in_reply_to_status_id β€” optional. the ID of an existing status that this update is replying to. o Note: this parameter gets ignored unless the author of the tweet it references is mentioned inside the status text. so you must include @username, where username is the author of the referenced tweet, inside the update. πŸ’…
  • lat β€” optional. the latitude this tweet refers to. valid range is -90.0 to +90.0 (North is positive), inclusive. this one gets ignored if it's outside that range, if it isn't a number, if geo_enabled is disabled, or if there's no corresponding long parameter on the same tweet. πŸ™ˆ
  • long β€” optional. the longitude this tweet refers to. valid range is -180.0 to +180.0 (East is positive), inclusive. ignored if it's outside that range, if it isn't a number, if geo_enabled is disabled, or if there's no corresponding lat parameter on this tweet. 🌸
  • place_id β€” optional. the place to attach to this status update. valid place_ids can be found by querying reverse_geocode. πŸ—ΊοΈ
  • display_coordinates β€” optional. by default, geo-tweets have their coordinates exposed in the status object (this keeps things backwards compatible with existing API applications). to turn off the display of the precise latitude and longitude β€” but keep the contextual location info β€” pass "display_coordinates =" 0> on the status update. yes that's really what it says, i don't make the rules πŸ’€

and then the block closes out like:

EOT

πŸ’« twitter_api_method destroy_status

this one destroys the status specified by the required ID parameter. the catch: the authenticating user must be the author of the specified status. main character only, periodt. πŸ‘‘

twitter_api_method destroy_status => (
    description => <<'', Destroys the status specified by the required
ID parameter.  The authenticating user must be the author of the
specified status.

    booleans => [qw/trim_user include_entities/],
    required => [qw/id/],
    returns  => 'Status',
);

πŸ¦‹ twitter_api_method friends β€” deprecated, bestie 😭

deprecated => 1, fr fr. this method has been deprecated. Twitter intends to stop support for it on May 14, 2012. use friends_ids and lookup_users instead. iykyk. 🫠

it returns a reference to an array of the user's friends. if id, user_id, or screen_name isn't specified, you get the friends of the authenticating user. the returned users are ordered from most recently followed to least recently followed. πŸ’œ

use the optional cursor parameter to retrieve users in pages of 100. when the cursor parameter is used, the return value is a reference to a hash with the keys previous_cursor, next_cursor, and users. the value of users is a reference to an array of the user's friends. the result set isn't guaranteed to be 100 every time, because suspended users get filtered out. set the optional cursor parameter to -1 to get the first page of users. set it to the prior return's value of previous_cursor or next_cursor to page forward or backwards. when there are no prior pages, previous_cursor will be 0. when there are no subsequent pages, next_cursor will be 0. ✨

it's also aliased as following, and it's the one that returns Hashref|ArrayRef[User] (lowercase ref, don't @ me).

twitter_api_method friends => (

    description => <<'EOT', This method has been deprecated.  Twitter

"user_id", or "screen_name" is not specified, the friends of the
authenticating user are returned.  The returned users are ordered from
most recently followed to least recently followed.

Use the optional "cursor" parameter to retrieve users in pages of 100.
When the "cursor" parameter is used, the return value is a reference to
a hash with keys "previous_cursor", "next_cursor", and "users".  The
value of "users" is a reference to an array of the user's friends. The
result set isn't guaranteed to be 100 every time as suspended users will
be filtered out.  Set the optional "cursor" parameter to -1 to get the
first page of users.  Set it to the prior return's value of
"previous_cursor" or "next_cursor" to page forward or backwards.  When
there are no prior pages, the value of "previous_cursor" will be 0.

🌈 twitter_api_method followers β€” also deprecated πŸ₯²

deprecated => 1 again. same deal: this method has been deprecated, Twitter intends to stop support for it on May 14, 2012, and you should be using friends_ids and lookup_users instead. πŸ’€

it returns a reference to an array of the user's followers. if id, user_id, or screen_name isn't specified, the followers of the authenticating user are returned. the returned users are ordered from most recently followed to least recently followed. 🌸

the cursor situation is identical: use the optional cursor parameter to retrieve users in pages of 100. when the cursor parameter is used, the return value is a reference to a hash with keys previous_cursor, next_cursor, and users. the value of users is a reference to an array of the user's friends. the result set isn't guaranteed to be 100 every time as suspended users will be filtered out. set the optional cursor parameter to -1 to get the first page of users. set it to the prior return's value of previous_cursor or next_cursor to page forward or backwards. when there are no prior pages, previous_cursor will be 0. when there are no subsequent pages, next_cursor will be 0. πŸ¦‹

heads up: this one returns HashRef|ArrayRef[User] β€” capital R this time, because consistency is not the vibe here.

πŸ¦‹ twitter_api_method friendship_exists

tests for the existence of friendship between two users. it will return true if user_a follows user_b, otherwise it will return false. simple as that. ✨ (aliases: relationship_exists and follows.)

use of user_a and user_b is deprecated. it has been preserved for backwards compatibility, and it's used for the two-argument positional form:

$nt->friendship_exists($user_a, $user_b);

instead, you should use one of the named argument forms:

twitter_api_method friendship_exists => (
    aliases     => [qw/relationship_exists follows/], # Net::Twitter
    description => <<'EOT', Tests for the existence of friendship
between two users. Will return true if user_a follows user_b, otherwise

Use of "user_a" and "user_b" is deprecated.  It has been preserved for
backwards compatibility, and is used for the two-argument positional
form:

    $nt->friendship_exists($user_a, $user_b);

Instead, you should use one of the named argument forms:

friendship_exists β€” the mutuals check 🫢

Not me handing you two whole ways to ask this:

$nt->friendship_exists({ user_id_a => $id1, user_id_b => $id2 });
$nt->friendship_exists({ screen_name_a => $name1, screen_name_b => $name2 });

required => [],
returns  => 'ArrayRef[UserIDs]',

friends_ids πŸ’«

Returns a reference to an array of numeric IDs for every user followed by the specified user. Heads up bestie: the order of the IDs is reverse chronological.

Use the optional cursor parameter to retrieve IDs in pages of 5000. When the cursor parameter is used, the return value is a reference to a hash with keys previous_cursor, next_cursor, and ids. The value of ids is a reference to an array of IDS of the user's friends. Set the optional cursor parameter to -1 to get the first page of IDs. Set it to the prior return's value of previous_cursor or next_cursor to page forward or backwards. When there are no prior pages, the value of previous_cursor will be 0. When there are no subsequent pages, the value of next_cursor will be 0.

Also it has an alias, so you can call it by its other name too πŸŽ€

path     => 'friends/ids/:id',

params   => [qw/id user_id screen_name cursor/],

Use the optional cursor parameter to retrieve IDs in pages of 5000. When the cursor parameter is used, the return value is a reference to a hash with keys previous_cursor, next_cursor, and ids. The value of ids is a reference to an array of IDS of the user's followers. Set the optional cursor parameter to -1 to get the first page of IDs. Set it to the prior return's value of previous_cursor or next_cursor to page forward or backwards. When there are no prior pages, the value of previous_cursor will be 0.

verify_credentials β€” the vibe check βœ…

Returns an HTTP 200 OK response code and a representation of the requesting user if authentication was successful; returns a 401 status code and an error message if not. Basically: use this method to test if the user credentials you were handed are actually valid. iykyk.

params   => [qw/include_entities/],
booleans => [qw/include_entities/],
required => [qw//],

end_session πŸ‘‹

params   => [qw/location/],
required => [qw/location/],

update_delivery_device πŸ“±

Sets which device Twitter delivers updates to for the authenticating user. Send none as the device parameter and it'll disable IM or SMS updates entirely.

required => [qw/device/],
returns  => 'BasicUser',

update_profile_colors 🎨

Sets one or more hex values that control the color scheme of the authenticating user's profile page on twitter.com. These values are also returned in the /users/show API method. it's giving interior design honestly.

update_profile_image πŸ–ΌοΈ

Updates the authenticating user's profile image. The image parameter is an arrayref with the following interpretation:

[ $file ]
[ $file, $filename ]
[ $file, $filename, Content_Type => $mime_type ]
[ undef, $filename, Content_Type => $mime_type, Content => $raw_image_data ]

The first value of the array ($file) is the name of a file to open. The second value ($filename) is the name given to Twitter for the file. If $filename is not provided, the basename portion of $file is used. If $mime_type is not provided, it will be provided automatically using LWP::MediaTypes::guess_media_type().

$raw_image_data can be provided, rather than opening a file, by passing undef as the first array value. obsessed with the flexibility tbh.

path     => 'account/update_profile_image',
method   => 'POST',
params   => [qw/image/],
required => [qw/image/],
returns  => 'ExtendedUser',

update_profile_background_image 🌈

Updates the authenticating user's profile background image. The image parameter must be an arrayref with the same interpretation as the image parameter in the update_profile_image method. The use parameter lets you specify whether to use the uploaded profile background or not. See that method's documentation for details.

path     => 'account/update_profile_background_image',
method   => 'POST',
params   => [qw/image use/],
required => [qw/image/],
booleans => [qw/use/],
returns  => 'ExtendedUser',

rate_limit_status ⏳

Returns the remaining number of API requests available to the authenticated user before the API limit is reached for the current hour.

Use ->rate_limit_status({ authenticate => 0 }) to force an unauthenticated call, which will return the status for the IP address rather than the authenticated user. (Note: for a web application, this is the server's IP address.) the way that actually matters for rate limits, fr fr.

path     => 'account/rate_limit_status',
method   => 'GET',
params   => [qw//],
required => [qw//],
returns  => 'RateLimitStatus',

update_profile πŸ‘‘

okay so blocks!!! πŸ’… you've got create, destroy, exists, blocking, and blocking_ids β€” the whole block-management situation. blocks/create/:id is the POST that makes a block happen, blocks/destroy/:id is the un-block (and it hands you back the user, all freed and everything πŸ•ŠοΈ), blocks/exists/:id tells you whether you're blocking somebody β€” and lowkey if there's no block it just hits you with an HTTP 404, so brace yourself, bestie 😭. Then blocks/blocking gives you a whole array of blocked user objects (ArrayRef[BasicUser]), and blocks/blocking_ids gives you ArrayRef[Int] β€” just the raw numeric ids, no vibes attached. Note that include_entities is a boolean on basically all of these, and destroy_block still lists the booleans even though include_entities isn't in its params β€” that's just how the original wrote it, don't come for me 🫢.

help/languages returns ArrayRef[Lanugage] (yes, the type name is spelled "Lanugage" in the source, iykyk, we keep it real) β€” the list of languages Twitter supports plus their ISO 639-1 code, which is the two-letter value you'd pass as lang in your requests. πŸ¦‹

saved searches are the scrapbook of your Twitter life πŸŽ€ β€” saved_searches (GET) returns ArrayRef[SavedSearch] of everything the authed user has saved. saved_searches/show/:id fetches one by its id (gotta own it, no peeking at other people's stuff πŸ‘€). saved_searches/create is a POST that takes a required query and gives you back a SavedSearch.

           description => <<'EOT',

so reverse_geocode is the where even am I endpoint πŸ—ΊοΈ β€” it searches for places (cities and neighborhoods) that can be attached to a statuses/update. Give it a latitude and a longitude and it returns a list of all the valid places usable as a place_id when updating a status. Conceptually: you query from the user's location, grab the list of places, have the user validate where they're at, then send that location's ID up with a call to statuses/update. ✨

There are multiple granularities of places that can come back β€” "neighborhoods", "cities", etc. And here's the important bit, bestie: at this time, only United States data is available through this method. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

The params it takes are lat, long, accuracy, granularity, and max_results, with lat and long being the required ones, and it returns a HashRef.

  • lat β€” Required. The latitude to query about. Valid ranges are -90.0 to +90.0 (North is positive) inclusive. πŸ“
  • long β€” Required. The longitude to query about. Valid ranges are -180.0 to +180.0 (East is positive) inclusive. πŸ“
  • accuracy β€” Optional, bestie. It's a lil hint about the "region" you're searching in. If you hand it a number, that's a radius in meters β€” but it can also be a string suffixed with ft to say feet. Don't pass it at all? Then it's assumed to be 0m. And if it's coming from a device, in practice this value is literally whatever accuracy that device has when measuring its own location (GPS, WiFi triangulation, whatever the vibe is). πŸ›°οΈ
  • granularity β€” Optional. The minimal granularity of data to return. If you don't pass it, neighborhood is assumed. You can also pass city.
  • max_results β€” Optional. A hint about how many results to return. Heads up: this does not guarantee you'll get exactly max_results back β€” it just tells the API how many "nearby" results to return. Ideally you only pass in the number of places you actually intend to show the user. No cap. ✨

    required => [qw/id/],
    returns  => 'HashRef',
    description => <<'EOT', Returns details of a place returned from the
"reverse_geocode" method.  EOT );

So geo_id is giving "tell me everything about this one place," and the place you're asking about comes from the reverse_geocode method. It's a GET, it needs an id, and you get a HashRef back. πŸ’–

twitter_api_method geo_search => (
    path        => 'geo/search',
    method      => 'GET',

    required    => [],
    returns     => 'HashRef',
    description => <<'EOT', Search for places that can be attached to a
statuses/update. Given a latitude and a longitude pair, an IP address,
or a name, this request will return a list of all the valid places that

Conceptually, a query can be made from the user's location, retrieve a
list of places, have the user validate the location he or she is at, and
then send the ID of this location with a call to statuses/update.

This is the recommended method to use find places that can be attached
to statuses/update. Unlike geo/reverse_geocode which provides raw data
access, this endpoint can potentially re-order places with regards to
the user who is authenticated. This approach is also preferred for
interactive place matching with the user.  EOT

);

THIS ONE. geo_search is the recommended way to find places you can attach to statuses/update. Nothing is required (empty array, she's chill like that), and you get a HashRef back. πŸ—ΊοΈ

The whole concept is a little flow: make a query from the user's location β†’ get a list of places β†’ have the user validate where they actually are β†’ then send that location's ID along with a call to statuses/update. And unlike geo/reverse_geocode, which gives you raw data access, this endpoint can potentially re-order places with regards to who's authenticated. It's also the preferred approach for interactive place matching with the user. Obsessed. πŸŽ€

similar_places finds places near the given coordinates that have a similar name. Needs lat, long and name. Returns a HashRef.

add_place is a POST (it's creating something, of course it is πŸ’…) and it makes a brand new place object at the given latitude and longitude. Returns a Place. Requires name, contained_within, token, lat, and long.

⚠️ Order matters here, fr fr: before creating a place you have to query similar_places with the latitude, longitude and name of the place you wanna create. That query gives you back an array of similar places and a token. If the place you want isn't in that returned array, then you can use the token with this method to create a new one.

lookup_users returns up to 100 users worth of extended info, specified by ID, screen name, or a combo of the two. The author's most recent status gets returned inline β€” but only if the authenticating user has permission. And ngl, it's rate limited to 1000 calls per hour. πŸ•

The glow-up here: this method takes user IDs or screen names as either a comma-delimited string or an ARRAY ref. It'll also accept arguments in the normal HASHREF form or as a simple list of named arguments. So literally any of these forms are acceptable:

$nt->lookup_users({ user_id => '1234,6543,3333' });
$nt->lookup_users(user_id => '1234,6543,3333');
$nt->lookup_users({ user_id => [ 1234, 6543, 3333 ] });
$nt->lookup_users({ screen_name => 'fred,barney,wilma' });
$nt->lookup_users(screen_name => ['fred', 'barney', 'wilma']);

$nt->lookup_users(
    screen_name => ['fred', 'barney' ],
    user_id     => '4321,6789',
);

Flexible queen. πŸ‘‘

okay NOW we're in the list era and it's iconic. buckle up 🫢

🌸 all_subscriptions

every list the user (or the authenticating user) is subscribed to, including their own. Pass user_id or screen_name; if you pass neither, it just uses the auth'd user. simple as.

okay so subscriptions is the one that shows you who a user is following in list-form β€” lists/subscriptions, a GET, takes user_id, screen_name, count, and cursor, needs nothing required from you, hands back an ArrayRef[List], and it gives you 20 lists per page by default πŸ’… and does NOT include the user's own lists, bestie, read that twice 🫢

then the ### Legal ### era πŸŽ€

  • get_privacy_policy hits legal/privacy with a GET, no params, no required, returns a HashRef β€” it literally returns Twitter's privacy policy πŸ“œ
  • get_tos hits legal/tos with a GET, no params, no required, returns a HashRef β€” it returns the Twitter Terms of Service, and heads up: these are not the same as the Developer Rules of the Road 🚨 (iconic of them honestly)

and then the file goes 1; and __END__, because even a Moose role needs to end the party eventually ✨
